Description
===========

FastMtEval implements several automatic Machine Translation evaluation metrics: BLEU, NIST, and GTM-1.
It supports bootstrap evaluation of confidence intervals, as well as statistical significance testing
of differences between two systems.
It is written in C++ and should be very fast.
